Episode 119 – Ozgur Tohumcu, General Manager for Automotive and Manufacturing at Amazon Web Services
“We were talking about AI assistants a year ago. Now we are deploying advanced AI agents on the factory floor, and that shift is transforming how manufacturers approach automation, data, and solving some of their biggest challenges.”
In this episode of the Manufacturing Matters podcast, Ozgur Tohumcu, General Manager for Automotive and Manufacturing at Amazon Web Services (AWS), joins TECH B2B Marketing’s Winn Hardin and Jimmy Carroll to discuss how AI (agentic AI in particular), cloud computing, and digital transformation solutions are reshaping manufacturing. Tohumcu discusses the rapid evolution from AI assistants to agents and how these technologies are helping manufacturers conquer legacy infrastructure challenges, address labor shortages, and rethink their operations overall.
Additional topics include real-life examples of how AI agents have helped major corporations, strategies for building a strong data foundation, the role of generative AI in accelerating product design, and emerging trends like software-defined factories and humanoid robots on the factory floor.
